New week, new thread! What are you playing?

Haven't played much other than Girls' Frontline 2. Going to have a busy week so I needed to finish the remaining events and stuff before the next patch which arrives on Thu. Should be able to return to Octopath next week.

Heat levels returned to unsustainable levels here, so I mostly tried to survive the past week
But not even high temperatures will stop me from playing the last SRWY DLC later in the week

Live a Live, I finished the 7 stories and unlocked the Medieval chapter, I don't really know if it was intentantional or a product of the localization but the subversion of the silent protagonist was neat.

Now I'm doing the Final chapter, which honestly is the only part of the game that actually feels like a RPG dungeon and exploration proper.

I finished FF7 Remake + Intermission. Ended up having a good time. Though I did put combat to easy partway through. Just not really my thing.

Also played through Zenless 3.1 main story. Really, really good stuff. They've really hit their stride. Looking forward to trying the new "extraction" mode next week.

I'll probably not jump into Rebirth right away. Eyeing Tunic right now.

I've been playing Crystar quite abit over the past two weeks.

It's a shame that I'll probably have to drop it.
I really appreciate what they did with a clearly very limited budget, and I like the overall aesthetics and even gameplay of it.
I even like the basic story concept of time loops with small changes trying to reach a better ending. In fact, some of my absolute favourite stories in gaming are about precisely that!
But the game just doesn't have sufficient gameplay variety to carry the way it goes about this. I really do want to know what ends up happening, but I don't think I want to know to a sufficient extent to play the same levels and fight basically the same enemies for yet another round.

The (particularly Japanese) tendency to pad out games beyond what their variety can reasonably support claims another victim.
It almost makes you cry.
